  • Abstract
    We investigate the problem of provisioning shared-mesh-protected sub-wavelength connections in wavelength-convertible optical WDM networks. We propose protection-at-lightpath (PAL) level and protection-at-connection (PAC) level. We found PAL outperforms PAC in such network settings.
